7 things women over 60 should never do: These mistakes are unforgivable.

1. Tolerating Disrespect
No woman, regardless of age, should be treated with contempt. But at 60, after a lifetime of effort, sacrifice, and learning, tolerating disrespect is simply unacceptable.

This includes insults, mockery, belittling, or attitudes that undermine dignity. Respect is not required, but it is demanded with presence and assertiveness.
